Well the only time I felt really good about looking youthful resulted from a young twenty something gal thinking I was unmarried and in my late twenties, early thirties. That was a nice pat on the back.

I actually haven't been called 16 for quite some time, but I still often get early 20's as a guess of my age.
Flash and I still pull out our college IDs at the movies. I think we'll continue to try it until we get our senior citizens card.

I am currently paying a heavy price for this.

Goose, being the excellent PT that he is, has helped me a lot with stretching, but I'm still a couple weeks from running again. Getting old sucks.

i would like to do all those things! first and foremost i want to drop 17 more lbs. to put me at 170. next item of importance would be endurance... i don't care so much about speed right now. 5k? 10k? half marathon? not even thinking that right now.

thanks for the advice..

I just went over to the Salt Lake Running Company and had them watch my running to help pick out some new running shoes. They saw that I was over-pronating, so they had me try out a bunch of structured shoes to keep that from happening. My knee has really been hurting after my runs, so hopefully these shoes will help. I tried on a bunch of different brands, but here are the ones I ended up getting.
